Just wanted to chime in here... I agree that the there should be an option added to disable the map scrolling.

Alternatively "scrollwheel: false" should just be set by default. IMHO it's a feature that has lost its usefulness as mobile has become more prevalent.

It poses a serious usability problem when on the single event view on a mobile device and you're trying to scroll down past the google map. The user gets stuck fidgeting around with the google map. You've done such a great job with the mobile theme otherwise!

Modern tribe, your solution u provided doesnt exist!!
You've updated the files and now its in a js file... but to that, how to disable scrolling NOW, without touching core files?? Your Guide doesn't provide a solution!

I've had to add these settings to embedded-map.min.js. Without them, the Google map has a slim white vertical stripe at top left, where these controls were trying to squeeze in to a very small area. Clicking this area fires up Streetview, which is unnecessary and confusing. This applies particularly to a single event view where the map is tall and narrow.

The thought about custom coding plugins is that it’s usually a bad idea because it can cause hesitation in updating.
A single checkbox in The Events Calendar > Settings > Map Settings that reads something like “Disable mouse-wheel scrolling in Maps”, or as Kyle has it here: "Enable Scrollwheel".
